Glories. Deep sky-blue with gold throat. Clarke’s Early Strain is about two 
weeks earlier than the original but it does not overcome the tendency to free¬ 
ly produce growth at the cost of flowers. This can only be overcome by 
planting in poor, dry soil.

Lupins, Russell Strain. Wherever hardy or perennial Lupins (Polyphyllus) 
are grown, this new English strain should be used. The Russell Lupin excels

English variety was quite outstanding for uniform habit and very rich 
coloring.

Marigold, Harmony. We find this small dwarf bedding variety the best in its 
class. It comes uniformly true to type, flowering most freely. Deep orange 
center with maroon collar. Should be freely used for flowering early in pots 
and growing in flats.

NOTE: Under this heading we draw your attention to items we find of 
special value. Our selection of this list is based on our trial ground 
experience and, as far as possible, their behavior in various sections. 
Necessarily, a list of varieties of extra value must contain standard 
as well as new ones. We trust you will examine it with the same 
care we used in making it up.
